Project Management Office Mission

The mission in PMO’s in most cases correctly describes what the PMO will be doing, how the project will be done and who exactly is the project is going to be. The Mission statement is usually wide-ranging and supports the importance that the project brings to the organization. For example, “The Acme Project Management Office (PMO), implements and supports project management methodology to enable our organization deliver projects faster, cheaper, with higher quality, and within estimates and expectations”. Therefore, the PMO’s mission for an Information technology service states the scope of the project and what is going to be prioritized by it. (University of Mary Washington, 2016)

The primary responsibility of the PMO as well as the functions of other people who will participate in the project and exactly how the project will be of benefit to the organization. The mission may also indicate the quality and the standards of the services provided by the PMO as well as the methodology and guidelines employed during its implementation. The purpose also in most cases indicates that the project will be completed within the set budget and time frame.

The PMO’s mission also includes identifying projects which may be of significance to the organization and could be handled by the company’s project management staff. The PMO also offers support to the Project Management office thus acting as a resource for the needed tools such as software among others. The mission of the PMO is also to standardize everything regarding project management including their forms, templates, their methods and processes throughout the company.

The corporation I have created, Digiworld Solutions is an Information Systems Corporation. The Mission of the PMO in this organization is therefore as follows. To offer a general tactic for identifying, prioritizing and implementing a selected projected successfully. The PMO will also ensure that the project selected related to Digiworld Solutions long-term goals and as well as ensure that the execution of the project will not strain the corporation financially and will be done within the determined time frame.
